Completely and totally charming. Do people live in those homes now? I’ll go to your link and read about it — just wanted to comment before I forgot where I was, which often happens when I start clicking. Wonderful pictures of what really does look like an enchanted fairyland. Thanks!!

Ha — that was your own link — I hadn’t even recognized it as the same place until I clicked and then I thought ‘of course !’….but I googled Roros and answered my question. Fascinating to think of living in the middle of a Heritage site like that!

What a delightful and fun place to visit and so much history! I love the red painted wood, too, and the sleigh is the perfect touch with all the snow! What a fun trip you had! Thanks for sharing it with us!!

You are so right about the enchantment. I also knew where you were coming from about those lovely cottages being ‘homes for the poor’. In the city in which I live the street which has the most expensive and upmarket homes (now) was first set aside as homes for the poor with extra land so they could grow their own vegetables.

ladyfi,
These pictures show perfect match of traditional old structures and snow. Who can resist their graceful charm!! I wish I could see them. I always love old wooden buildings. Fascinating photos as usual!

The snow’s melted where I live, but I can practically hear the cold; it’s probably also warm in those houses though. Also, that quote by Thoreau — the one in the banner — has a nice pertinence to the mix of images and description..
